Graduating children,
already in school, to make room for children who want to get in.
In our three main centres we recently graduated 60 children
to make room for 112 new.

Full story
Very
poor children being prepared to enter school for the first time.We
have given each centre a target of how many children we hope to prepare
and register for school by this December. Trujillo is on target. Huaraz
is optemistic.Waiting for word from Cajamarca and Malabrigo. Total:
130 children

Our campaign:
"DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR STREET CHILDREN!" is beginning
to pick up momentum in centres where lots of international tourists
are encountering Argentina's child laborers on a daily
basis.The object of the campaign is to recruit volunteers from
the tourist population who visit Argentina each year, |

 What
the devil is going on in Trujillo?! In the last news update
we announced the opening of a second centre. But now it is closed
- why?
|
 For only the
second time since John F. Kennedy came to office bringing the Peace
Corps with him has the Third World had so much at stake in a US election.
The other time was four years ago, but the poor did not know then
what they were in for - they do now. If making the entire world care
passionately about the outcome of a presidential election is promoting
Democracy, then George W. Bush has a lot to be proud of: because virtually
everyone on the planet would like to be able to vote in next month's
US election. Few, however, are saying which way they would vote -
they don't want to provoke xenophobic Billy Bob and Wanda to vote
the other way.
Billions of little fingers crossed. |
